Some may already know this but I didn't realize it until I called around this morning. Instead of paying they are doing other things to stay open, and no I won't mention the books or the new sites they are using. Just logged in at one and everything is exactly the same as the old one. "We'll shut the doors before we pay one nickle" a book told me this morning. "They attack that one we'll open a new one and so on". It's not like they are just sitting around twiddling their thumbs. Bookies by nature are a resilent bunch and I expect a drawn out war before some just hand over $30,000.
One last thing, while I am glad some haven't paid the extortion fee and I support them to no end, not sure it is fair to tar and feather the others. Some players were talking of a boycott of certain books if they find out who paid. I certainly don't trust the hackers but if 90% of your business is over the net it is tough to close the site down. I guess I am saying it is easy to judge where we sit but may be another story when all the facts are presented later. As always the RX will have the breaking news. Stay tuned.
